You never know what you will wake up to do you? We put all the animals to bed last night. Everyone happy and healthy with full bellies. This morning we woke to find dear Grace had passed away. No signs of illness or struggle. Grace was 26 years old, she came to us from an extreme neglect case with her 32 year old buddy, Ivy. Grace had every reason to dislike humans yet she was so sweet and gentle. She was a study in forgiveness and how to revel in the purity of a good feed, a good brush, a good day, a good moment. Poor Ivy is really feeling the loss as they were so very closely bonded. She is off her feed and just so sad.We are all supporting Ivy, hoping she will feel a little better each day. Rest easy, Grace. And thank you. Deb

The hot weather continues as today’s forecast predicts a sweltering 40 degrees! It’s been a challenge but we’re doing our best to keep everyone cool. We’re all eagerly awaiting some much-needed rain to bring some relief. Until then, we stand resilient and hopeful 🌧️🙏 #RainDance

Who do you think was enjoying this more- Wilma 🐷 or Kayla?

Our little black hen, Maud, achieved a rare feat for a hen: she died of old age, passing peacefully overnight. Maud and PollyAnna were roomies. They shared a little coop together up at our house. PollyAnna was clearly the boss: type A personality. Maud was so exquisitely patient and gentle with PollyAnna’s ways she was a saint and simply followed PollyAnna on her daily bustles. In a world where hens’ lives are cut brutally short, Maud had been a survivor. She survived a house fire. She survived a predator attack. She was on the run for a few days evading rescue attempts before she relented and finally came to Where Pigs Fly. We brought Maud and PollyAnna into our home the last few nights. PollyAnna was with her at the end. You can clearly see her emotions. We will all miss our little hen who was the perfect calming influence. Rest easy sweet Maud.

Celebrating Shirley’s 6 year rescue anniversary with her favourite food- oranges 🧡 Shirley arrived in a neglected state after she was surrendered by her owner, just days before she was due to be sold at sales yard. She sadly left behind her young family. As the months passed, Shirley didn’t form new friendships with any of the other animal sanctuary residents. After lengthy negotiations, the owner released Shirley’s babies and they were finally reunited as a family in April 2019. Shirley and her family are living out their lives at the sanctuary - happily together #farmsanctuary #sanctuarylife #goatsofinstagram #someonenotsomething #veganfta

When Phoebe was seized by the RSPCA she could hardly walk for two months due to severe neglect. Her hooves were so overgrown they curled over like slippers. Phoebe has chronic health issues and needs daily meds, special feed and lots of hoof care to keep her well. The sanctuary has become a place of healing and happiness for Phoebe, allowing her to enjoy life despite her challenges ❤️ #sanctuarylife #farmsanctuary #someonenotsomething #veganfta #wherepigsfly

RACE TO KINDNESS

So this Cup Day, let’s shift the focus from racing to rescue, please donate to help us care for these horses and all the animals who call our sanctuary home. Tap the link in the comment below. Thank you🌼
